Of all the chocolates Costco carries around the holidays, these Anthon Berg Liquor-Filled Dark Chocolates are probably the most unique/memorable. I’m not a big fan of the combination of liquor and sweets, but I think the package of tiny bottle-shaped chocolates is really neat and well done. I don’t score … Read more
Costco sells a couple of different kinds of these Utah Chocolate Truffles. I’ve tried the Mint Milk Chocolate ones and the Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt ones so far.
